Jack wrote the memoir Hi, My Name Is Jack, One Man’s Story of the Tumultuous Road to Sobriety and a Changed Life (Howard Books, 2011). It is an outrageous, honest (way, way honest), and inspirational story. You hear it all: infidelity, divorce, abuse, lying, embezzlement, and SECRETS.

Here Jack kindly shares a bit of his story. You’ll hear more on REFILLS RADIO at 2 p.m. Eastern (11 a.m. Pacific), especially words of comfort directed to women who know an alcoholic or suspect alcoholism.

I was just about ready to listen to this interview, when the phone ring, it was my son. He has been struggling with alcoholism for a few years, at least to my knowledge. I hope to listen to it from the archives.

I need more understanding…
